The Pentagon has ordered all military leaders and commands to pull and review all of their library books that address diversity, anti-racism or gender issues by May 21, according to a memo issued to the force on Friday.

It is the broadest and most detailed directive so far on Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s campaign to rid the military of diversity and equity programs, policies and instructional materials. And it follows similar efforts to remove hundreds of books from the libraries at the military academies.

The Supreme Court on Tuesday allowed President Donald Trump to implement his ban on transgender people serving in the military.

The justices granted an emergency request from the Trump administration to lift a nationwide injunction blocking the policy while litigation continues.

The Supreme Court on Tuesday sided with the Trump administration in lifting a lower court order that paused the Pentagon's transgender military ban from taking effect – allowing Trump's order and related policies to proceed, at least.

The high court ruling is a near-term victory for the White House, even as it did not address the underlying merits of the case or President Donald Trump's Jan. 27 executive order banning transgender service members from the U.S. military.

The US Supreme Court temporarily allowed President Donald Trump to enforce his ban on transgender people serving in the military while legal challenges to the policy move forward.

Shortly after taking office in January, Trump signed a pair of executive orders that enabled the Pentagon to implement the ban.

The Supreme Court will allow President Donald Trump’s ban on transgender people serving in the military to take effect while court challenges continue.

In a win for the president's efforts to curb rights for transgender people, an ideologically divided court on Tuesday agreed to the administration's request for help after lower courts paused the ban.

The court’s three liberal members − Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson − said they would have rejected the request.

Senior Trump administration officials promised they would push through a roughly $1 trillion military budget for the coming year, even as the Elon Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) project aims to drastically shrink federal spending.

“We’re going to be approving a budget, and I’m proud to say, actually, the biggest one we’ve ever done for the military,” Trump said Monday during a White House event with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu...

The Army is planning a huge military parade in June to mark its 250th anniversary that could include over 6,600 soldiers, 150 military vehicles and 50 helicopters.

The plans were first reported by The Associated Press, which obtained the planning documents dated Tuesday and Wednesday but have not been publicly released.

Army spokesman Col. Dave Butler confirmed to the wire service about the possibility of the parade.

The Army has long planned its 250th anniversary festival on the National Mall, but the parade is a new potential element...

Remember when Space Force was the punching bag of liberals from coast to coast? Wait and see just how many paeans to the brave men and women of the military branch established during the first Donald Trump administration the left launches in the next few weeks after a military commander with the branch effectively tried to take a Space Force base out of the hands of the second Trump administration.

The development of a nuclear bomb that would be 24 times more powerful than the one dropped on Hiroshima, Japan, during World War II is "significantly ahead of schedule," according to U.S. national security officials.

Every other winter, the U.S. military gathers with allies on the Arctic for Operation Ice Camp as the warming region becomes increasingly accessible, raising concerns about borders and peace.

At the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland, a $37 million sea wall project was finished last year to keep out the rising tides now flooding the base 30 to 40 times a year.
